    He Engineers Cash Flow: Doron Levi on Terms, Operators and Return on Time

    Most investors ask what a deal will return on their money. After the sudden loss of his father, Doron Levi started measuring his return on time instead.

What we cover: • Choosing return on time over return on investment • Moving from building and selling service companies into real estate full time • Why he will pay a little more for a property when the terms are right • How creative terms carry a value-add property until it cash flows enough to cover the debt • The cap on how many commercial loans a lender will let you hold • Due diligence: why neither apartments nor RV parks are the safer bet • Checking into his own resort as a guest in its second week • Business or job: how wearing multiple hats in his first company made it a job • The story behind Pace Corbin Way: Doron is building the community as a tribute to Pace Morby and renamed its street for Pace and Pace's late brother Corbin • Why getting 400 deals a month does not mean buying 400 Chapters: 00:00 Preview 02:45 Engineering Cash Flow 03:35 Choosing Return on Time 10:55 Pivoting Through Crisis 19:28 Terms Beat Purchase Price 24:43 Undercover Boss Due Diligence 28:22 Business or Job? 31:56 Pace Corbin Way 39:09 Quality Over Quantity 🤝 Connect with Doron Levi (he says he always answers his Instagram DMs): 📸 Instagram: https://instagram.com/doronlevirei 💼 LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/doron-levi-67a4513b ▶️ YouTube: https://youtube.com/@DoronLeviREI 📘 Facebook: https://facebook.com/p/Doron-Levi-61564901586462 🤖 AIOS Blueprint: https://aios.edgartheconnector.com If you know someone chasing every deal that crosses their desk instead of building a real buy box, send them this episode and follow the show. 👉 Don't forget to 👍like, 💬comment, 🔔subscribe, and share. 🔧 Tools & Resources Mentioned 🔧 Some of the links below may be affiliate partnerships.

    Monique Pasciak was on a plane trying to sell her healthcare software when the man next to her told her he did not want to be sold to. He asked what else she wanted.

    How to Attract Private Money Without Pitching

    In January 2009 Jay Conner's bank cut off his entire line of credit overnight, with deals already under contract. Instead of quitting, he asked one question that changed everything, and raised over 2 million dollars in the next 90 days from people he already knew. What we cover: - The day his bank pulled his credit line with no warning and the one question that turned it around - How he raised over $2 million in private money in 90 days, sourced from his own church Bible study network, not strangers - Why he leads with education instead of pitching and never talks about a deal he needs funding for on a first conversation - How he protects private lenders with the same kind of security a bank would expect - Lessons from his father about service that still shape how he runs his business - Closing an oceanfront foreclosure deal in 7 days because private money moves faster than a bank ever could Jay Conner is a real estate investor who has been investing full time since 2003. He has rehabbed over 300 houses for more than $52 million in total transactions, averaging $67,000 profit per deal, none of it funded by a bank. He now teaches his system for raising private money nationwide and hosts the podcast Raising Private Money with Jay Conner. ⏱️ Chapters 00:00 Preview 00:39 How Jay Started Raising Private Money 02:39 Lessons From Jay's Father 07:12 Masterminds, Failure, and Resilience 09:22 The Bank Cut Him Off 13:07 Discovering Private Money 13:52 Raising $2M in 90 Days 19:01 How His Real Estate Business Worked 20:06 Teaching Before Pitching 21:49 His First Private Lender 25:44 What Private Money Unlocked 27:35 Protecting Lenders and Buying Right 32:17 How to Vet a Private Money Borrower 33:51 Teaching the Private Money System 37:50 Where to Learn More 40:21 Working With Carol Joy 41:10 Closing a Foreclosure Deal in 7 Days 43:18 Serving Sellers First 46:01 Carrying His Father's Legacy 47:55 Final Thoughts 🤝 Connect with Jay Conner 🌐 Website: jayconner.com 📝 Private Money Script: jayconner.com/scripts 📖 Book: jayconner.com/book 🎤 Private Money Conference: theprivatemoneyconference.com 🎙️ Podcast: Raising Private Money with Jay Conner 👉 Don't forget to 👍like, 💬comment, 🔔subscribe, and share. 🔧 Tools & Resources Mentioned 🔧 Some of the links below may be affiliate partnerships.
